The You Yangs

 [ melb025 ] The You Yangs are a small set of hills a short drive southwest of Melbourne. From a scenery point of view they're like a mini Mt Buffalo with granite boulders and exposed rock faces. On a clear day you can see all of the way across Port Phillip Bay along the Mornington Peninsula and up to Melbourne and beyond.  [ melb024 ] The park isn't big enough for overnight walks but there are some good day walks in this island of forest.

For those that might be interested, the photo below is what a rainbow looks like when shot on infrared film. If you look near the top of the rainbow you will notice that there are extra bands, effectively filling the gap between what should have been two separate rainbows.
